PORT 2: Starting the Voyage - Getting to know your competitors. In order to beat your enemies in this race, you need to know more about them INCLUDING where they went, what their primary motivation was and the results of their explorations. We have already learned about the PORTUGUESE now let's turn our sights on to the the other European nations competing with HUMANAVIA for GLORY!

FIRST, it is time to begin compiling our MAP of the voyages so we can keep track of where everyone is going and the results of their voyages.


On the map provided and using your textbook, trace the voyages of any three of the following:

Legend/Key that shows each of the explorers and their journey. Give each a different color or a different map.On your map, make sure that you include:


Create a chart with the following important information needed so we can keep track of everyone in the race

  • Explorer's full name and country sponsoring the exploration
  • Dates of voyage(s)
  • Size of fleet
  • And most importantly a summary of their (AND YOUR) discoveries/achievements and/or results of each journey. (I should see both positive AND negative results of their voyages!)
